ving played both games , i couldnt help but add my five cents.

IWD , is a really fun game. ITs a BG lite with all the good points and none of the seriousness of BG.Its got a cute stoy line,lots of hack and slash , the usual quest biz but on a lesser scale than BG. It also has the game syetem you know and love , so it will not be hard to start. it is not however BG and thats the fact, its mising that trulllllllllllly huge epic adventure feeling..

NWN is a diffrent kettle of fish all together.IT is your huge epic adventure in the fullest form. save the continent.battle the evils.really well thought out plots ,NPcs and all.I think in some ways Stratos hit it on the head perfectly.Being one who likes to battle on thier own , its single player game is OK,but it took me a while to warm up to it.The solo thing is very diffrent , more diablo like im told (though i have as yet to play that game). the whole feel to the game is diffrent. the one hench man idea , didnt really strike my fancy, but that thief was a cute little BASTARD.Though by the time your into the second chapter , your sick or the word reagents! lol
the graphics are awesome though.Took me abit of time to get used to how everything swings around with the move of your mouse , but fater a bit , its great. really added to my game play.

so . like i said it all depends on what your looking for, but both are really worth it...
